Southern School of Natural Therapies (SSNT) is an Australian private natural health college that offers both tertiary education and vocational education and training. The school is based in Fitzroy, Victoria. The School is owned by education provider Think Education, itself part of the Laureate International Universities group. Think Education was previously owned by SEEK Learning. Other Think Education colleges include: Billy Blue College of Design, CATC Design School, APM College of Business and Communication, William Blue College of Hospitality Management, Australian National College of Beauty, Australasian College of Natural Therapies and Jansen Newman Institute. Together these colleges have more than 10,000 students enrolled. ==History== The school was established in 1961 by Alfred Jacka and was originally known as the Victorian Branch of the Australian National Association of Naturopaths, Osteopaths and Chiropractors. It is the first college in Australia to gain degree accreditation for coursework in naturopathy and clinical myotherapy. In 1981, the college was renamed the Southern School of Natural Therapies and in 1983 expanded to include separate coursework in massage. Prior to this, massage was integrated with the naturopathy coursework. In 1997, the School became the first private education provider to gain degree accreditation for naturopathy, accepting students for degree-level coursework in 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.australiannaturaltherapistsassociation.com.au/courses/recognised_naturopathy.php#modality-vic-5 )〕 In 2002, the School added degree programs for Traditional Chinese Medicine and in 2003 became the first in Australia to gain degree level accreditation for coursework in Clinical Myotherapy. The School was acquired by Think Education (then the Think: Education Group) in 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.think.edu.au/about-think/news/think-education-group-acquires-leading-complementary-medicine-college )〕 After this purchase, the school business model changed and it joined Think Education’s other colleges. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Southern School of Natural Therapies」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
